The Court, this.morning, was occupied
in the discussion of tlio question, whether
Mr. Vindor, a-witness in the indictment a
gainst Wright White, for abducting Row

of refuting his evidence under the general
ground that lie might criminate himself if
he answeredany questions. There .Was a

Mr. Thomas, the Surveyor, has ascertained
that the true boundary is it pBth, celled tiie
Mr.-reek Path." beginning at Suw-nmta Old
Town, on the Chattaimocliee, and striking
Six's orr the Hightower, near its'month
and thence running to the Tennessee river.
On Tuesday last, the surveying party had
progressed fifteen miles;.and it was ex
pected that in n few days they would reach
Six's. The Cltcrokecs had threatened to
stop the Surveyorsbut it was beljevei^no
attempt would be made to interrupt ttiesr
progress, unless the Cherokee Ageht, Col.
Montgumery.avould interfere; and lpve the
Surveyors.arrested ,under a United States
warrant; but it .was. repotted that the ,4-
genti on application, from several CheroHec
Chiefs, refused to interfere. The. length
of tlte line, from the Chattalibociice to the
Tennessee rim,- is estimated.at'140‘niijes;
and the average distance from the Carroll
county;liner to tlio line now running,
estimated a't,thirty miles, but tins distance
increasing to nearly sixty miles as the
boundary approaches the Tennessee river.

for in Ins ciyil rights in consequence of his
religion's opinions, and in answer to a 're'
mark from Lord Eldon that. Locke had
expressly declared ihat the principles of
the Catholics.conid tint be tolerated, said
this argumentofLncke was founded un the
allegation that Catholics would not keep
ifaith with hcretlcs.and others of a similar
'nature. The Duko of Athol defended his

avowed that he had been induced to sup
port (tie bill by (he strong anil cogent ar-

of this measure as (he most .trifling, ludi
crous anil trumpery that could be concciv-'
ed; and said the bill was a violation of tiie
constitution; anil would revolutiftnixe the
-country. Lord Roden also oppailSd the
bill, and said his belief, that it would caus;
the overthrow of the Establishment, was
not lessened by the fact; that the Church
of England and Ireland was a human insti
tution, and, as such, liable to error and de
cay. The Bishop Ytf Litchfield supported
the blilrak promoting the interests of the
Protestant religious freedom.' The Duke
of Newcaslle begged leave to state, .that

State of Manufactures Great distress
prevails in the manufacturing districts;
The Sheffield, Couranl says:
“The state of trade in almost all the
manufacturing districts is such as to excite
the most fearful apprehensions. Inmur
own town, the demand for its manufac
tures was scarcely ever so dull, und though
our streets are.not yet filled with half-fam
ished workmen, therfl.is t.no' much reason
to believe such an Appalling.sight will, ere
tong, present itself- The prices at wlrich
mamifacttlred -goods arc spld da nor, in
some instances, exceed the value pf tho
raw material, apd the wages paid for labor
are necessarily so very low aa. to reduce
the workmen, almost to ,tlie condition of
paupci a. Iritill, under tjiese circumstances,
it is with-difficulty any ssles are etTectej)
and large stocks are.constbntly accumula

not exist long, and unless a revival of trade
fakes place very-shortiy, we almost trem
ble for the consequences.’’ —
